Description
From my own collection that I'm down-sizing . . . .
These two discs have the six tracks released on 7" by Kleenex (who later changed their name to Liliput). They have been in a box for over 40 years so are in excellent condition. The vinyl will have been played just a handful of times very carefully.
I must have heard the band first on John Peel early in 1978 and went out to get their first single which at that time was an import into the UK of the Swiss release. It is on the Sunrise label, 078-S 1964 and there are four tracks (two of which were later re-released as a Rough Trade single).
The vinyl has a large centre hole and has no blemishes or scratches at all, you'd think it had just been pressed yesterday. Side A: Beri-Beri, Ain't You with Runout Matrix 078 S-1964 A R SO. SWISS MADE (crossbow logo) Side B: Heidi's Head, Nice with Runout Matrix 078 S-1964 B2 R SO. SWISS MADE (crossbow logo) From the fact it is a large centre hole and with those matrix numbers it looks like it is the first pressing.
The sleeve is a wraparound b/w printed on one side of thin matt card which just has a bit of slight discolouration on the folds and slight rubbing at the edge. Looking at various info and with the pressing having a large hole you might expect this sleeve to have some colour on it, but no, sorry. Maybe there were some original pressings that came into the UK with a plain sleeve.
The other single is the second released by Rough Trade with two new tracks: Side A: U Side B: You Again the vinyl has no blemishes or scratches and you'd think it had just been pressed yesterday.
This time it is a standard sleeve except that it was designed to be cut open (which I didn't do) and so is printed on the inside as well.
I will send these out in the UK by recorded delivery, which is included in the price.
If you are outside the UK then your invoice will have an additional cost included which is for the ebay Global Shipping Programme, a scheme where ebay take over shipping overseas from their UK distribution centre and then track the delivery to your door.
